The Wild Rover Lyrics

I've been a wild rover for many's the year I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer But now I'm returning with gold in great store And I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's No, Nay, never, No, nay never no more Will I play the wild rover, No never no more
I went in to an alehouse I used to frequent And I told the landlady me money was spent I asked her for credit, she answered me nay Such a customer as you I can have any day
And it's No, Nay, never, No, nay never no more Will I play the wild rover, No never no more
I took up from my pocket, ten sovereigns bright [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/the-wild-rover-lyrics-sinead-oconnor.html ] And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight She says "I have whiskeys and wines of the best And I'll take you upstairs and I'll show you the rest"
And it's No, Nay, never, No, nay never no more Will I play the wild rover, No never no more
I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son And, if they'll forgive me as oft times before Then I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's No, Nay, never, No, nay never no more Will I play the wild rover, No never no more
